Q: Mail Login Info not showing up in Keychain

Our internet provider just changed their email system from the Google partner program to something else. I made new accounts using the info that they provided and everything works well. It's just that my login information for the email account didn't automatically get entered into Keychain Access and I was wondering why. Has anyone seen this issue before?  I have OS X 10.10 yosemite . Thanks.

MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10), 17 in, 4GB

    Thanks, did that, fixed a few things but I still don't see my email account info in there. However, I do not have to type in a password to get into the account, so it must be stored somewhere. Nothing in Keychain looks like the Google account information did. There are several entries that start with ids: . The date that those entries happened doesn't really correspond to when I made the change. One of them may have the password information in it, but when I try to see the password in Keychain, nothing is displayed. So I guess I don't know how they work.
